..was wondering why fellows went into defensive mode when there are men really suffering out there with concentration in some parts of the country!!!

Those been beaten are not men. Men take care of their families, men provide, men pray for their families, men give Godly advice, men state their vision, men behave respectably.

Those are just big-male babies.

@Ndume, I really concur on most of what you say, but I have also seen cool guys (bulls) that still get punched by their wives regardless of the fact that they are non violent and would never hit a woman. It also depends on her temperament, and one could easily marry a girl that enjoys dishing out the slaps and punches. It happens

I know of such a guy who on the wedding day when the man of cloth said ýou can now kiss the bride'rather than receive a wet one between his lusting lips got a slap for training his eyes on one of those Noni gathoni ladies that dresses to cause confusion in weddings. I think the lady was from kerenyaga.

Guys, wacheni uchokozi.
I'm from Muranga, my wife from nyeri.
She's never beaten me or swept the house of our items.
With busy schedules and kids to raise, budgets to balance, where do people get time to fight or do such stuff?
These are stereotypes.
However, i had a jirani when growing up and his wife from nyeri was fire. Even in our young age, we knew that she used to beat him with mwiko and he'd run away at night.
